Red Lentil Soup

Red Lentil Soup

2 tbs. olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 c. carrots, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 tsp. salt
1/3 c. red lentils
4 c. chicken broth
1 tbs. fresh parsley, minced

Heat oil in large saucepan over medium high heat.  Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until tender about 4-5 minutes.  Add carrot, garlic and salt and cook, stirring one minute.  Stir in lentils.  Add broth and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat cover and simmer 15-20 minutes, or until ingredients are tender.  Place soup, one half at a time into blender and process until smooth.  (I use my immersion blender.)
Pour soup into bowls and garnish with parsley.

Have a Blessed Day,
